Miss Guided (2008) s01e03 Episode Script

Honestly, meredith, i hardly noticed it.
Yeah, right.
How can you not notice this? Have you tried wearing a hat? I find that sometimes it--It focuses the attention up, away from the face.
Or anything distracting, really.
When i had my wisdom teeth out, i spoke with a cockney accent for two weeks, And trust me, nobody noticed the swelling.
Hello, governor.
Yeah, well, when you were here, you didn't have lindsay lopez making fun of you.
Why don't you just talk to lindsay and tell her that she's hurting your feelings? Lindsay lopez isn't a person.
It's a gossip blog for the school.
Right, a blarg.
It's--It's got, like, pictures and lists-- You know, best hair and most doable teacher, who's dating who.
M-Most doable what? Who writes this? Nobody knows.
Freeley, i'm sending you some burnouts after lunch.
If i can't use autopsy pictures to scare 'em straight, i'm at a loss.
What is wrong with your face? Young lady I apologize, and i promise, we are going to find the monster that did this to you.
Now he may say he loves you, but that does not excuse him - Beating you like an old dog.
- Okay, bruce, this is meredith ritter.
She just had a medical procedure.
Oh, a nose job.
Good for you.
Plastic surgery is chicken soup for the face.
Thank you, bruce.
Thanks.
You're welcome.
Thanks so much.
Mr.
O'malley.
Principal huffy.
I'm concerned about the educational films you've been showing in your spanish class.
Really? Why? Because they have nothing to do with spanish or education.
They were dubbed.
"Sabado night fever, " "better off muerte, " "El grande adventure de pee-Wee" and "witness"-- That is just a really great movie.
Movies don't teach kids spanish.
Movies teach kids smoking, violence and intercourse.
No more movies.
Uh, you got it.
You got it.
No problemo.
Is everything okay? Yeah, yeah.
Huffy just wants me to be more creative with my spanish lessons.
Well, it is good to think outside the box.
I think the expression is "think outside the bun.
" Right.
So i just heard about this web site that the students are into called lindsaylopez.
Yeah, it's dumb, but when it said i have the best hair of any teacher here, i have to admit It made me feel pretty awesome.
So, um, how often do you read it? Pretty much every day.
Honk! Most do-Able teacher Jealous? Of lisa germain winning some juvenile beauty contest run by aunch of oversexed teenagers? Please.
That's inappropriate and unprofessional.
I want them to think of me as an authority figure, not a stripper.
I'm fine with where i ended up on the list.
Bruce, we have a serious problem.
There is a blarg being viewed by our students that Is extremely hurtful and potentially damaging to their self-Esteem.
Blog.
Lindsaylopez.
Net.
I have it bookmarked.
Good.
You've heard of it.
So you know why i'm here.
I need you to have it taken down.
I had a student today who was reduced to tears.
Who? Oh, that tapey-Faced nose-Beast back there? Look, i don't mean to tell you how to do your job, freeley, But she should know better than to get a nose job during the school year.
You save that for summer vacation.
It's like you don't even watch "the hills.
" I mean it, bruce.
This is like a 21st-Century version of those awful slam books we had growing up.
Ah, those were harmless.
Oh, really? I remember one girl that had slightly hairier-Than-Normal arms, And some not-So-Nice people gave her a really hard time.
I'm sorry, freeley, but we live in a different world now.
Web sites like lindsaylopez provide me with invaluable intel.
It's an invasion of privacy.
I can't believe that you're in charge of discipline, and you'll do nothing to stop this.
Oh, i get it.
You're upset about the hot teacher rankings.
What? What rankings? I-I--I'm not familiar with that at all.
Look, if it bothers you that much, i'll throw you a couple of votes to bump you up.
I know under those rags lurks mething good, but my imagination can't do a the work.
Simon, sweetie, don't you have a class now? Bruce, you can't just pull simon outta class to stand behind you like a tiny butler.
He's my aide until noon 30.
All you need to know about that blog, freeley, is that it serves a purpose-- Even the most doable teachers list.
Women need rankings.
How else are they going to know how attractive they are? For your information, those rankings are meaningless to me.
Myelf-Esteem is based on my job performance.
I don't care if i'm 13th, 14th, 15th or 16th.
18th.
You're 18th.

Yeah, he's not so happy with me.
But i figured out a way to be more creative with my teaching and get huffy off my back-- A car wash.
Are you sure that's the best way to teach the students a foreign language? No, the best way is to hire a teacher who speaks spanish, but that ship has sailed, so I think a car wash is a great idea.
It is.
I was just about to say that.
I figure i'll have the kids speak spanish the whole time, And we'll give the profits to a mexican orphanage i read about outside of guadalajara.
Charity is so important.
I actually volunteer at a homeless shelter.
When they run out of beds, i let the spillovers sleep on my deck.
Well, i would love to help you with your car wash, tim.
Me, too.
I'll even get my cheerleaders to pitch in.
It's a great way to teach them about philanthropy.
They should know that there's more to life than just being beautiful and well-Liked.
Thanks, guys.
No, thank you, tim.
This car wash will be the perct opportunity for me to show tim a side of me he hasn't seen-- Weekend becky, casual becky.
The challenge of turning a car wash into a spanish lesson is getting the kids to speak only spanish.
That, and figuring out how to dry the tops of s.
U.
V.
S.
I'm thinking that we're gonna need some kind of pulley system or a harness.
You look really good today.
Thanks.
I just got a haircut.
I know.
I read about it on lindsaylopez.
I'm sorry, but the content of that web site is inappropriate.
I mean, a most doable teachers list? Oh, i know.
That list is so embarrassing.
It is so weird knowing that all these students think i'm doable.
Yeah, but you gotta admit, reading it is addictive.
So what is this for you, eight weeks at number one? It's all so juvenile, i barely pay attention.
Nine weeks.
Quite a run.
So what if tim reads lindsaylopez? Who cares? I'm not gonna change who i am or how i look to move up on some stupid list.
Yeah, but i'm the one who's jealous of you, becky.
I mean, it's so much easier being right in the middle where no one will ever notice.
- I don't know that i-- No one w- - Please.
Paul, what number is becky freeley on the list? - Who? - See? Hey, man.
Check that out.
Hello, boys.
Hurry off to class now.
Forever 21.
Hey, tim.
Becky.
You look different.
What, this old thing? It's just something i threw together at the mall yesterday.
Miss freeley, are you all right? I'm fine.
Thanks.
Great.

I wasn't That is the last time i change in my car.
Okay, lopez, what have you got for me today? coach terry.

I mean, inigschool it would've driven me crazy.
But i'm an adult.

When that picture of you went uon the internet, It was the most humiliating picture i'd ever seen of anybody.
Yep, it was.

Probably dropped out of school or moved out of state.
Okay.
Or killed myself.
You know, meredith, sometimes it's easy to forget that teachers ha feelings, too, and so-- But the way you handled it was awesome.
When you tolme to igre the pictures of my nose, i thought you were full of it.
